Default Stock TMPS tire stems vs. new rubber ones.
Since I need to replace 2 tires, wondering if it is better to have all 5 TMPS stems
replaced with rubber ones to prevent the metal ones from breaking.

if you are worried about breakage, then sure it is beneficial to have all rubber stems. As long as you have a tuner to rid the light on the dash of course.

I think its a good idea. I had a bad experience with one of my steel stems once.

Plan is to put 4 sensors in a PVC tube with one used to fill tube over 35#'s, put in Jeep
to send message to unit to keep light off.
